The Photographic Alliance of Great Britain (PAGB)
The umbrella organisation that provides benefits and co-ordinates specific events for the majority of
photographic clubs and societies in England, Scotland, Wales & Northern Ireland. It does this through 15
regional organisations known as federations. These events and benefits apply variously to individual
photographers, to societies and clubs, and to the federations themselves.
The Lancashire and Cheshire Photographic Union (L&CPU)
We are members of the L&CPU and through them, the PAGB. It arranges various competitions and
events each year. Individual membership of the PAGB is not permitted and so the L&CPU forms a link
to it which, amongst other things, provides insurance for club members.
The Inter Club Photographic Alliance (ICPA)
We are also members of this local group of camera clubs from the south east Lancashire
area. It organises various competitions each year.
